ONEY MARKET AND COMADIROIAL INTELLIGENCE. CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. An increased demand for monetary accommoda tion is perceptible to-day ira the general discount market, and the rates are consequently a little firmer, viz., 51 and 6 per cent. The available balances are, however, abundant, and as the addi tional Inquiries at the present time are only re garded as temnorary, the public still look forward with confidence for a reduction is the official quo tation on Thursday next. A further sum of £24,000 in gold was taken into the Bank yesterday. The Stock Exchange Committee have decided not to grant a settlement in the shares of the Aus tralian and Eistern Navigation Company. During the last few days there hats not been much animation exhibited in the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets. Tea, however, has been in fair request at fall rates. Sugars have remained at steady prices, while the operations in rice, coffee, cocoa, and fruit have been to an average extent at about previous rates. Ire the tallow market there has been no material change, the dealings for both present and forward delivery having been somewhat curtailed. The twenty third annual meeting of the share holders of the North British Australasian Company Was held to-day—Mr. Eastace Anderson in the chair. The revenue account showed a net profit of receipts cver expenditure of £11,281, and from this divisible balance the directors proposed a dividend at the rate of 5 per cent, free of income tax. A Special meeting of the shareholders of the National Company for Boatbuilding by Machinery was held to-day for the purpose of considering a proposition for winding up the affairs of the under taking, and for transferring the business, plant, &C., &e., to another company to be hereafter formed, entitled the London Boat and Barge Builcting Company. The consideration for the exchange of the property, Seca, to consist of the payment of £17,600, beirg one-fifth of the whole paid-up capital in shares of the new company. Col. Sykes, M.P, occupied the chair, and informed the meeting that the directors were competled to take the step proposed in consequence of their inability to continue operations without a larger capital, and of the non-compliance of the shareholders to in crease the amount by the issue of debentures. The Sabloniere Foreign Hotel Company has been brought forward for the purpose of purchasing the site upon which the cele brated establishment in Leicester-square, which a uPplies the title to the undertaking, now stands; and also the lease, business, stock, goodwill, and freehold of property a - joining, and to rebuild an hotel on the improved models adopted on the con tinent. In the cuisine department especially the tastes and wants of foreigners will be consulted. The ; ; poswon of tne establishment is well eitua ea, being but a short distance from the Charing cross Railway Station. The services of the late pro prietor have been retained as manager. Part of the purchase-money is to be paid in shares, and interest upon the amount paid up at 5 per cent. per annum will be allowed to shareholders unlit the completion of the new hotel. The capital required i 514100,000 in shares of £2O each. Tw'cLcz. At the P ar i s B aurse this day, according o to Mr. Renter's telegram, the Three per Cent. Estates opened at 66f. 05c. Flat. There has been no alteration to•day in the market for the English funds, which, however, continue Sri; a favourable ef f ect' being produced by the abundance of money and the prospect of a lower minimum rate of discount.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. Mr. Commissioner Holroyd was the only Commissioner, and disposed of a short list of cases, principally releases. RE RBA.. This bankrupt had been a baker in Wood-street, Si Luke's, and applied for his release. His Honour said it appeared the bankrupt had been bankrupt before, and asked whether he had obtained his discharge under that bankruptcy ? Plaintiffs id he had not. His Honour—Then I cannot interfere—you must get rid of your first bankruptcy before I can release you. RE FYFE. This bankrupt was a warehouseman in the city, and his release was opposed on the ground that he was connected with a person named Edwards, and gave him a recommen• dation, on which he obtained goods, which soon afterwards found their way to Burton's sale rooms. His Honour said he would not interfere until after the meeting for choice of assignees. RE PEERMAIIOMED. This bankrupt carried on business in King William. street, City; Liverpool, and Bombay, and this was a meet. ing for choice of assignees. The bankrupt was a member of a large firm carrying on the principal business at Liverpool and Bombay. lie came before the Court on his own petition in respect of private debts to a small amount, £3BB, but his liabilities in respect of the firm are stated at £50,000, against which are heavy consignments. Mr. Lopez, merchant, Bucklersbury, was appointed as• signee, and Mr. Chidley, Olthjewry, solicitor to the estate, The b tnkrupt is in Whitecross-street prison, and did not apply for his release. POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day, BOW-STREET. TILE SELF-ACCUSED MURDERER OF EMMA JACKSON.— Inspector Williamson, of the detective police, attended before Mr. Vaughan this morning, and reported to his worship that the man Edward Collins, who had given him self up as the murderer of Emma Jackson, in George-street, some time ago, was still an inmate of St. Giles's workhouse. He had been examined by the medical officer, and although that gentleman felt little difficulty in pronouncing him a lunatic, yet he had informed him (Inspector Williamson) that he should like to have the man a short time longer under his observation before he pronounced a decided opinion. He (luspector Williamson) had taken the girl who admitted the man . and ill-fated woman into the brothel on the morning of the murder to see the person who 'tact accused himself of the crime, and she in the most positive manner had stated he was not the person. She said she was certain that he was not, because Collins (the man in custody) was a very lame man, and the person she let into the house on the morning of the murder was not. Mr. Vaughan asked whether here were not any other persons who could speak to the appearance of the real murderer. Inspector Williamson replied in the affirmative. Mr. Vaughan said it would be as well that those parties should see the man, and also if there was anything found on the prisoner which wand indicate who and what he was, it had better be acted upon, because it would not be safe to discharge such a person without he had some parties to take charge of him. Inspector Williamson said in a day or two he would have the friends of the prisoner in attendance, and until then he would leave the man in the care of the surgeon of the workhouse. Although, from what he had already heard from that gentleman, there appeared to be not the slightest doubt the prisoner was a lunatic, he had already made some reference to an asylum in which he had been an inmate some time ago. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. STEALING ♦ GOLD WATCH ♦ND OPERA-GLAM.— Albert Ray, a young man, was charged with stealing an opera-glass, of the value of three guineas, the property of Mr. Rol'ert Downing, of 30, Great George-street, West minster, civil engineer, and a gold watch, of the value of £lO, the property of Mr. Emanuel Brunulli, of 65, Brook street, Bond-street. It appears that the prisoner was servant to Miss Kellock, of 9, Hanover. street, and absconded in the early part of last year; and after he was gone a number of articles, the property of gentlemen lodging in the house, was missed, including the opera glass belonging to Mr. Downing, and the watch the property of Mr. Branulli. Madgett, 74 S, took the prisoner into custody on March last on another charge, and duplicates relating to the opera glass and watoh were found in his possession. This morning, on leaving the House of Correc ion, where he had bean undergoing 12 months' imprisonment, he was taken into custody by Ser geant Edwards, 12 C, and Madgett. Mr. Downing deposed that in the early part of 1863 he lodged at Miss Kellock's, 9, Hanover-street, Hanover.. square, and was robbed of his opera glass, which he subse quently identified at a pawnbroker's. Remanded. BREAKING INTO A WINE CELLAR.—Elizabeth Rush ton, a young woman, servant to Mr. John Percival, tobac conist, of No. 3, Panton-street, Haymarket, was charged before Mr. Tyt whitt with stealing six battles of champagne, five of claret, four of port and three of brandy, of the value of £5, the property of her master. From the evidence of Mr. Percival it appears the prisoner entered his service on Thursday last, having been engaged from a registry office. On -unday morning and Monday morning the prisoner was found to be labouring under intoxication, mid the police were called in, whets on mak ing a search they found the wine cellar had been broken open, and Mr. Percival missed a number of bottles of wins, some of them being found in the prisoner's room. besides several empty bottles. Prisoner said set was very sorry. Mr. Tyrwhict said he had no di übt she was. She had entered a person's service and began robbing him directly. He would remand her for a week, but considered it a case for severe punishment. Mr. Percival said Ls did not wish to press the case with severity, as 149 ttlollght it was the pritoner's fret offence.

BETTING AT MANCFIES:ER-MONDAY, There was a numerous attendance at our Subscription Rooms this day ; but the betting than took place may safely be designated a game of " cross purposes," for horses were up and down in prices in a most perplexing manner. For the Northamptonshire Stakes Gardener had an upward ten dency, and closed at Bto 1 (takea). Lord Zetland, Win grave, and Touch-and- go were steady ; and Costa, after 20 to 1 had been Lid, closed firm at 100 to 7. Dollar and Blithfield were unsteady, part cularly the latter, 25 to 1 being laid several times against him. Welbeck, Blondin, and Whitethurn were several tines inquired after, but less than 33 to 1 was refused about the latter, that figure, how ever, being taken agst Welbeck and Blondin. The Chester Cup speculation was remarkable for the decline of Golden Pledge, 50 to 1 being offered against him, owing to a report that he had met with a serious sccident. At 10 to 1 Change was in demand; but 200 to 7 was laid agst Blackdown, and 100 to 3 Aufield, although satsequently an offer was made to take 25 to 1 about Anfield. A commission was in the market for Oidminster, but less than 40 to 1 against him was refused. Accident and Little Stag would have been invested on at 25 to 1 each, bat 20 to 1 was the highest offer against either horse. Fifteen "pules" were offered on the field for the City and Suburban, bu`. the only invest ments ma le were on Mail Train and Vntluptas, 25 to I each being taken. Not a bet was laid on the Two Thousand .Guineas ; but for the Derby a few bets were booked in favour Qt 131 4 ; r 4 thol and First Flight. Cl os i ng prices : NORT RAMTONSHIRE STAKES.

The watet leap was charged in thoabove order, and all got well over Wept Newp or t and oftspor, who fell, but the latter was quickly remounted and followed. Directly the water leap was cleared The Weed made the pace stronger, and con tinued in front until turning for home, when Clasper, who had overtaken his horses, came to the front, followed by Enderby, The Weed having fallen into the third place, and the others close up. Clasper went on with the lead for about a quarter of a mile when ho again came to grief. Liverpool and Errand Boy were now left with the lead, which the former held until coming to the last fence, when he was collared by Errand Boy, who defeated him after a goed race by half a length. Enderby was third, and Roderick fourth. Captain Holyoake, on Clasper, walked in fifth. The others were tailed off. The Tong Steeplechase Stakes of 35 80VS, added to a Sweepstakes of 5 soya each.

The Oxford and Cambridge Racket Matches The annual racket matches between the chosen represen tatives of the sister Universities commenced yesterday at Prince's Court, Hans-place, Chelsea, in the presence of a large number of the aristocracy and about three hundred University men. The double match was fixed to be first played, the condi- tions being the best of seven games. Additional interest was imparted, it havingbeen notified that his Royal Higla nests' the Prinae of Wales intended to be present; but at the last moment Mr Princ a received a communication that his Royal Highness was obliged to defer his visit. Play was called at two o'clock, Messrs. W. H. Dyke and A. H. Benthall being the referees. Mr Walker and Mr Mitchell represented the University of Oxford, Mr Daniel and Mr Warner being the selected for Cambridge. Betting-2 to lon Cambridge (taken). The light blue had the service and " speedily got 4 aces. The Oxonians got 11; their antagonists added 3, then the dark blue put on 2 more, Cambridge following the example. Mr Mitchell, by some brilliant play, put the other hands ouf, and Made an ace, the game then being 14 to 9; but Mr Daniel got in, and with his partner ran to 14, but Mr Mitchell again distinguished himself, and won the first game amid great cheering. In the second game the Ox ford got 8 right off, till Warner dropped in a quiet one and put them out, Mr Daniel having previously put Mr Walker off the service, and the Cantabs got 4. The other party did ditto, and then again light blue had the service and 5 re sulted, the marker calling Cambridge 9, Oxford 12. It fell to Mr Mitchell's share to put the hand out with a beautiful volley, and ere the others coald again score the second game was recorded in favour of Oxford by 6 aces. The third game was very exciting, Oxford b3ginning and making 4 to 2, 4 all, 4to 7, and 7 all. The fine play of Warner and his partner enabled them to make the Cambridge score 12, when some rattling volley services by Mr Walker, who played a splendid game throughout, carried the total for Oxford to 15, and they became the winners of the third game. The fourth game was "do or die" for Cambridge, their opponents having the service, but Daniel soon put both hands out and snored 2 wee. By the valuable aid of Mr Walker, Oxford had the count again, and 3 aces re sulted, Cambridge playing wildly; but recovering them selves, they got in and made the score 8. The Oxford players then added 2 more, but Cambridge would not be denied, and got the service, off which they made the register up to 14. The dark blue added 1 more, after some vigorous plq, but it was an expiring effort, as Daniel, after a splendid bout, won the ace, and consequently the game. The fifth, and as it proved, the last game, looked at first a " gone coon," for Cambridge rattled off 19 aces, the ser vices of Warner and the volleys and drops of Daniel being beautiful illustrations of the science of the game. Mr Walker was, however, übiquitous in the court, and with his partner at last stopped the current of apparent success. They got 4, the Cantabs added 1 more, and then the dark blue made the game 14 to 11. Once more did the Cantabs have the hand in, and twice more did they score, but Mr Daniel most unluckily fell in trying to reach so long a hit, and the service being with Mr Mitchell an ace was put to the Oxford credit, and the match declared in their favour by 4 games to 1, amid loud and long-continued shouts of applause. As is aiways the case at these courts, the beat order pre vailed, and the arrangements made for the spectators by the Messrs Prince gave general satisfaction. The single match will be played to-morrow, between Mr Walker for Oxford, and ?4r Daniel for Cambridge, the bet ting being 5 to 4 on Oxford. Improved Dwellings for the Working Classes, On Saturday the association rfcently founded by Mr. Alderman Waterlow, for providing improved dwellings for the industrial classes, held its first ordinary meeting at the Mansion House—the Right Hon. Lord Stanley, M.P., the chairman of the society, presiding. Mr. Alderman Water low, Mr. Alderman Finnis, and other leading menabal of the corporation were present, and took part in the proceed ings. The annual report having been adopted, Lord STANLEY related the s:epe which had been taken by the association since its formation to carry out the great objects it has in view. The sum of £lOO, he said, had been paid in part payment of the purchase-money, £B4O, for eight small freehold houses, known as Hamilton row and Hamilton-place, Bagnigge-wel s-road. An agreement ter a lease of 99 years for a piece of land close to the Tunnel Pier, Wapping, had been come to with the governor& of the Bridewell Hospital. The board was also negotiating for a lease of 80 years from the Metropolitan Board of Works• for a plot of ground in ltedcross-street, closely abutting on New Southwark-street, Borough. Further negotiations had been entered upon to obtain sitek. ,tt King's-cross, Victoria-street, and in Shoreditch, The subscribed capital of the society was £.1,000, and upward, of £3,000 had been received in tie.vance of calls, on which they were receiving £5 per cent. Some delay in building had been occasioned, but without any loss of money. Mere had been some difficulty in fi❑di❑g sites, bat thin had been partially surmounted. The estate in the Bagnigge• wells-road had been obtained upon the most favourable terms. This plot was about 4,000 square feet ; and the estate at Wapping, upon which buildings would be erected to cost 47,075, was 19,0;0 square feet. These were very conveniently situated for the pur poses for which they would be used The Southwark estate had a 66 feet frontage, and was in extent 28,000 square feet. Those at Wapping were paying up to the preserit time, upon an average, between 7 an i 8 per cent. They pro posed to put up three blocks of houses, and the remainder, if there was a sufficient demand for them in the neighbour hood. The buildings proposed to be erected would accom modate 60 families. The contract had bean entered into for the buildings at Southwark, which would involve an expenditure of £3,000. The preliminary expenses, he was nappy to say, had amounted to almost nothing, as, through the kindness of Mr. Alderman Water' ow, they had been pro vided with a room gratuitously, the only cost beyond that for building being the secretary's salary. (Hear, hear.) Mr. Alderman WATEALOW said that although the society had not effected much at present, still they had done a great deal in calling the attention of the public to the whole sub ject of dwellings for the industrial classes. lie was further happy to say that their example was about to be extensively followed. •• Lord STAI , TY stated, in reply to several questions, that no improvement had been made in the Bagnigge Wells property, as it would be merely throwing good monoy after bad. He might, however, say that what had been ex pended was but as a drop in the ocean of want that existed, He had seen as much in connection with the Peabody gift as had convinced him that their expenditure of £300,000 or £lOO,OOO for the object contemplated was only something contributed to the £3,000,000 or £4,000,000 that were absolutely required. It should also be borne in mind that while their efforts were increasing, the population to whom their efforts would apply was also rapidly increasing. He would not attempt to solve the question whether the constant increasing want could be supplied at a profit. No doubt the buildings they were ere cting would be occupied by the upper portions cf the wor ki n g classes,and the question then aro s e , what was to be done with those who could not afford to pay even the moderate rent which was asked ? He had himself no doubt that all these buildings could 'ae let at a profit; and, with regard to the poorer classes, if they were to build houses foe them, and let them at a loss, it became simply a matter of charity for lodging the working classes. This certainly was a difficulty. (Hear.) He stated this for the conside ration of those present, but he could not undertake to dve it, but only to submit the matter, so that it might stimulate their efforts to provide a remedy. (Hear, hear, and cheers.) Turquand was appointed auditor, a vote of thanks war passed to the chairman, the retiring directors were re elected, and the poceading, terminated. THAMES. MURDEROUS ASSAULT ON ♦ WIFE.--A FORGIVING WOMAN.—John Buttormure, an Irish labourer, was brought before Mr. Partridge, on remand, charged with violently assaulting his wife Ann. The wife's lace was terribly bruised, and her eyes were blackened. She stated on the first examination on Satur day that her husband never beat her at all, that she got drunk and fell on the fender and cut her face. He was a good husband, as good a man as ever lived. It was all her own fault. Her husband earned money. Gave it to her, and she made away with it in drink. She implored of the magistrate to release her husband. She made a false charge against her husband. Mr. Partridge—l shall not release him until the case is investigated. _ _ _ A police-constable, No. 6 H, said that he was called into a house in Three Compass-court, Whitechapd. The wise was bleeding front the nose and mouth, and she was ter ribly bruised. She said her husband had beaten her, and he did not deny it. The wife—Cleh, yer honner's wortchip, he did not bate me at all. The prisoner said his wife had been continually drunk since Christmas-day. Roche, the gaoler of the Court, said the prisoner was a sober, hardworking man, and his wife was not only a drunken woman, but a very dishonest woman, for she had been in custody for felony, and convicted. The wife—That is all true; he earns 3s Gd and 4s per day, yer huiner's wortchip, and he gives it me, and I get stone-blind drunk with the money. I hurted myself, yer homier. Mr. Partridge said he did not believe the woman inflicted the injuries on herself, and remanded the prisoner for the attendance of the officer who took the charge. This morning Sergeant Williams, No. 12 H, attended, and, after the Eight charges were disposed of, the prisoner was again arraigned in the dock, and Williams stated that the prisoner was charged by his wife with beating and kick ing her. She also said he came home intoxicated, that she was in bed with her two children, and that ho dragged her out of bed and beat her. She also said she was fearful he would murder her, and that she was in danger of her life. Thu prisoner said that what his wife had stated was quite right. Mr. Partridge had no doubt of the correctness of Roche's statement, and he bad no doubt the prisoner beat his wife in a very savage manner. The wile wes a very dissipated woman, hut title was nor to be killed by her husband. The woman had some good reeling about her, by endeavouring to save her husband from punishment. He could not, however, listen to her entreaties. The prisoner must be punished for the aggravated assault to committed on his wife. He sentenced him to be imprisoned for three months, and kept to hard labour. Liverpool Cotton Market —lhis Day. Market quiet and nun►. No change. Sales about 4,W0 balm Import, 18,640.

The heavy nature of the setling upon the late Warwick meeting attracted a larger attendance this afternoon than usual, coupled with which the chops and changes to which the wagering upon the Northamptonshire Stakes has been subjected duting the past week added many to the number who stood heavily committed on the race. Members began to drop in at a very early hour, and shortly after 2 o'clock the room and yard became almost thronged. Money, as usual at this early period of the season, appeared extremely plentiful, but from the numerous and cross accounts to be disposed of it was not until considerably past 4 o'elock that anything in the shape of speculation upon the first event on the card was entered into, the trarsections upon which, as will be gathered from our return, were solely noticeable for the complete knocking out of Lioness and Blithffdd, and the increased support given to Lord Zetland, Gardener, Wingrave, Costa, Gibraltar, and Fairwster, each of which were backed to win some hundreds at their respective prices. Dollar di t not appear to pass current, and Touch-and-Go, evidently affected by her name, was under a cloud, many of her admirers evidently bidiug their time until her number was exhibited. Flying Fish was installed first favourite for the Spencer's Plate tut 10 to 1 ; and Templar and Soap stone were mentioned at 14 to 1 eaea, and at a point over those odds Wild Thyme and Biondella were introduced. Little or nothing was done on the Two Thousand; 11 to 2 was currently offered on the &Id, Paris, as usual, remain ing at his old market price, 6 to 1. Canbuscan, however, did not receive so kindly a greeting; the reports of his having been stopped in his work evidently having gained credence; his openi g price remained unnoticed some time, until at last 15 to 2 was betted to some money by a well known speculator, who again laid 7 to 1 to the cl_Gse of the room. The Chester Cup was all but a lead letter; the only transactiou that came under our nobs: was the demonstra tion made against Golden Pledge, °se in the secret suc ceeding in laying 40 io 1 against him. THE DERBY.—Scottish Chief gate evidence of great vitality, as most of the bookmakers dielined to dispute the advance, and in consequence those vho were anxious to join his standard were compelled to Accept their price, but the layers appeared remarkably shy. Catubuscan's posi tion in the Guineas apparently had some effect upon his friends for this effect, as 14 to 1 to my amount could have been obtained of these who are generally foremost, whether right or wrong, to perform against a tottering favourite. Coast Guard was in some request at his quoted odds, as was Forager, Prince Arthur, and Blair Athol, beyond which those given in our price current were but nominally suppot ted. ,SPORTING INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

The directors held a private investigation on Friday, at the company's offices, Newport, as to the cause of the accident, and there is but little doubt entertained that some of the officers neglected their duty or else the collision could not have happened.

A CLERGYMAN DROWNED IN AUSTRALIA.—The Sydney Morning Herald notes a painful circum stance which occurred on the 31st December last :—" The Rev. G.W. Richardson was drowned whilst bathing in that part of Cook's River which flows through Major Fanning's grounds. Mr, Richardson was the incumbent of St. Mark's Church, Darling Point, but had lately removed to Canter bury, having exchanged duties for a few weeks, with the Rev. Percy Smith. The deceased gentleman was visiting at Major Fanning's, and alter luncheon he, accompanied by three little boys (his son, Master Fanning, and Master dulding), went to bathe in the river. Mr, Richardson was attacked with cramp before he had been long in the water, and, being thus rendered helpless, was drowned. The little boys were physically incapable of affording any assistance, and were much alarmed at witnessing this cala• witous accident. The body was not got out of the water before life had fled. Mr. Richardson was a young man of most estimable disposition, and was gt eatly distinguished for his piety and devotion in the wcrk of the Christian ministry. He has left a wife and four children to mourn his untimely decease."

DESTITUTION AND DEATII.—An intitj r Y w „ as held at the Green Gate T ave rn, City-road, by 'r. John Humphreys, Middlesex Coroner, last night, respect- I ing the death of James Baddick, aged 62 years. George Steed, 246 G, said that on Tuesday last he was on duty at half-past 10 a.m., in Dudley-court, Central-stred .He saw a man lying on the pavement very ill. He had no coat, shoes, nor stockings on. He could hardly speak. He said he was quite destitute, and that he had slept in the work house the night before, and that his name was James Bad dick. He had with him a small bag of leather cuttings, and he was supposed to have been a loather seller. Witness removed him to the workhouse. Inspector Fyfe said that the police had made inquiries, but could ascertain nothing about the deceased. Mr William Harris, house surgeon to the St. Luke's workhouse, said that he saw the deceased at 11 o'clock on the morning in question. He was destitute and very thin. He was suffering from typhus fever. Wit ness offered him stimulants, bat he died the next morning. The post mortem examination showed that there was no food in the stomach of the deceased except a little beef tea which had been given to him when he was brought into the house. The death of the deceased was caused by the second stage of typhus fever. • Witness was certain that no workhouse would turn the deceased oat in the state ho was in. He did not think, the deceased had been in a workhouse on the previous night. The coroner said it was most desirable that it should be ascertained whether the deceased had slept in a workhouse the night previous to his being found dying in the streets. He should therefore adjourn the court in order to enable the police to to make the necessary inquiries. The court was accord. ingiy adjourned.
